Repairs needed

The room was nice enough, and the beds were very comfortable. However, there were some negatives as well..1)water in the sink backed up and didn't want to go down..2) the commode wasn't bolted down good, so it would rock from side to side while you were on it..3)the floors were absolutely filthy because our feet were completely black..4) there was also at least a 2" gap under the outside door that a snake, rat, or?? could come in. It wasn't that bad for the price, but with a few repairs it could be really good.

Great history

Not a clean room . Tub was missing part , shelf hanging by a nail & some wierd looking stuff on the walls. Bedding had burn holes and stains . The outside was very nice ! Some might be taken back by the area . I felt totally safe . Location is right off of I-40 and close ti the venue i was going to. If only they would use some paint , a few hand tools and a broom it would be a great motel. I did NOT see any bugs during my stay .

Its an older style facility, so keep that in mind when you visit. The facility was quiet. Traffic on the main road could be noisy though. Coin-operated Laundry facilities onsite which is handy. Staff were nice & it was well priced.

Get what you pay for.

Check in was great. Staff was super nice…. They tried renovating the room (new beds, dresser, night stand, floors). Don’t walk around bare foot though. Knew we’d be wearing sandals/slippers soon as we got there. Bed was clean and new it seemed. So were the sheets, blankets and pillows. Though it was a queen sized frame with a full size mattress. So you slammed your leg/shin/knee/ankle getting in and off it cause there’s gaps between the frame and mattress. And other people dropped things in so under the bed is filthy if you look down…. Sitting on the toilet noticed feces in the floor tile grout and on the back of the door…. Fridge worked properly. Fridge and microwave were spotless (clean)…. People definitely live there. But they were quiet, and friendly. Didn’t feel unsafe at all…. There’s a laundry room, but we didn’t go in it or use it. Locals were doing their laundry so I assume it works.

This is a safe, budget friendly motel with great staff. Never had an issue on site or in the area and everything was a quick five/ten minute ride share away. Considering parking anywhere in the city is forty dollars, it saved a lot of money being able to park at the Drake.

Avoid at all costs

Room was extremely dirty, hookers in parking lot and bugs in our room. Other "residents" begging money at our room door, event he taxi driver warned us to be careful staying there. Holes in the walls and ceiling were plugged up with toilet paper. I wish I was making this up because I hate to hurt a small business but, avoid this place at all costs....we were actually afraid. Hotels.com should not be offering this hotel on their website.

The staff at the Drake were very friendly! It is a great budget friendly option within a 10 minute Lyft ride from Broadway. Always see the party tractors driving by too! The room was in need of a deep cleaning, pull everything out and scrub the floor, but we didn’t go in expecting the Taj Mahal either. Will definitely stay here again, if I find myself in my new favorite city once more!!!

Made reservations 4 months ago for a non smoking room when we got there to check in all they had was a smoking room the smell was horrible, floors, walls and doors were absolutely disgusting. AC smelled horrible. Blankets and sheets had burn holes in them. Bed was too small for the bed frame and was absolutely filthy underneath. Door jamb was lose and didn’t seal to the door correctly. Overall it was the nastiest place I’ve ever been to.

If all you're looking for a reasonably priced motel near downtown Nashville the Drake may be for you. It has been updated but make no mistake this is a no frills place. The floors have been updated and there are new locks on the doors. The linens/towels are low end. Other updates are lacking, especially ac units and overall fit and finishes. We didnt use it but the pool and adjacent barbecue area looked really nice. The staff is generally friendly and helpful.
